Geothermal energy is an increasingly popular and rapidly expanding technology. Geothermal engineers explore new ways to harness and use this technology by creating processes and equipment that convert thermal energy stored in the earth into electrical power.

By using the heat that naturally radiates below the earth's surface and taking advantage of the fact that the temperature underground is always constant, geothermal technology can be used for both cooling in the summer and heating in the winter. Hope this helps! Mark Brainly please!

Answer:

$\eta =46\%$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, we compute the heat output from coal, given its heating value and the mass flow:

$Q_H=60\frac{tons}{h}*\frac{1000kg}{1ton}*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{30,000kJ}{kg}\\\\Q_H=500,000\frac{kJ}{s}*\frac{1MJ}{1000J} =500MW$

Next, since the work done by the power plant is 230 MW, we compute the efficiency as shown below:

$\eta =\frac{230MW}{500MW}*100\% \\\\\eta =46\%$

Best regards!

Air supplied to a pneumatic system is supplied through the C. Actuator

Explanation

Pneumatic systems are like hydraulic systems, it is just that these systems uses compressed air rather than hydraulic fluid. Pneumatic systems are used widely across the industries. these pneumatic systems needs a constant supply of compressed air to operate. This is provided by an air compressor. The compressor sucks in air at a very high rate from the environment and stores it in a pressurized tank. the Air is supplied thereafter with the help of a actuator valve that is a more sophisticated form of a valve.

From the above statement it is clear that Air supplied to a pneumatic system is supplied through the Actuator
